One dude who never has a hard time keeping it up in the face of battle is Deadpool, and Ryan Reynolds' comic-book antihero made quite the viral-video impact with his 30-second TV spot lampooning erectile-dysfunction commercials and "touting the benefits" of buying Deadpool on Blu-ray this Tuesday. (Not surprisingly the spot was called #Deadpole. Think about it for a second.) According to Fox, the spot had more than 18 million views across Reynolds' Facebook page and other Deadpool social platforms.

There was an — ahem — extended version of this parody ad, and we've got the exclusive reveal. Created by Deadpool director Tim Miller, writers Paul Wernick and Rhett Reese, and Reynolds (who performs the monotone voiceover as well as the familiar guy in the mask), it features a few more double entendres, a couple extra "side effects" and shenanigans galore.
